… normally, I wouldn’t go out shopping on my own, except if I have things I really wanted to get. Today, I went to Midvalley at around 1.30pm, normally at this time I should still be sleeping. Especially since yesterday (or rather, this morning) I slept at around 6.30am. Went to play pool yesterday night with CheeV, Calvin and Su Yin until 1am, and then for teh special at Restoran Lotus (Wisma MCIS, next to PJ Hilton) with CheeV…

Okay… back to my shopping trip… I reached there, took me 5 minutes to search for a parking space… darn, it’s Wednesday and the carpark was packed! Oh well, must be due to the holidays and lunch time… sure indeed, Midvalley Shopping Mall was full of people (though not as bad as weekends), some shopping for the coming Hari Raya, some out for holidays, lotsa “cuci mata” for me… though I saw some serious contenders for the Ah Lian of the Year award (dressed ridiculously, summore with parents, sigh, must be from out of town.. teehee smiley )

Went to see my other housemate who’s working in Little Vietnam restaurant… after that I had my lunch at Delifrance (mushroom soup, Seafood Croissant… yum! smiley )… After lunch, I went to MPH and looked for this book:


Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly
by Anthony Bourdain
I bought the paperback version for RM 34.90 - though mine is of a different cover… regional difference I think… I will only read this book I think after my hols, to fill up the mundane life in Timbuktu Nilai, a life without pool smiley

Then I went on to ACE Hardware in hopes to get a 3M Scotch-Brite Abrasive Pad to polish my pool cue, but alas, they don’t have any, so I bought a super fine grade steel wool instead. Feeling dissapointed, I drove to Jaya Supermarket in Section 14, PJ to search for the Abrasive Pad, there’s a hardware store there that sells things that you can’t find at sissy hardware stores… this place is the only place I know selling Dremel MultiPro rotary tool… hehe… but sadly, that place also don’t have… damn! smiley

I’m gonna e-mail 3M in Malaysia to find out who stocks their Abrasive Pad… smiley Gonna go polish my cue shaft now (its’ getting rough and not smooth gliding anymore - but nowadays I play with glove on anyway, sweaty hands >.< ) - perhaps later take some pix of it and put here smiley
